I like that plan. The Reds get a solid SS, a solid defensive 3B who can hit at least as good as EE, and a solid RH bat for LF, all for EE, some prospects and some cash. Rivera would be the best deal of all the RH LF available, probably a 2 year $10M contract, and he most likely will put up numbers very similar to Dye or the other options. Also Sanchez has more upside than Arroyo and is a lot cheaper.
Quick, email this to Walt!

Re: Yunel Escobar

atlanta would've dealt escobar in a deal for peavy. arroyo is no peavy. all i've seen that's new is that cleveland may have an interest in furcal with the idea that he would be their ss and peralta could be moved to 3rd.
